132:1
LORD, do not forget David and all the hardships he endured. |
132:2
Remember, LORD, what he promised, the vow he made to you, the Mighty God of
Jacob: |
132:3
"I will not go home or go to bed; |
132:4
I will not rest or sleep, |
132:5
until I provide a place for the LORD, a home for the Mighty God of
Jacob." |
132:6
In Bethlehem we heard about the Covenant Box, and we found it in the fields
of Jearim. |
132:7
We said, "Let us go to the LORD's house; let us worship before his
throne." |
132:8
Come to the Temple, LORD, with the Covenant Box, the symbol of your power,
and stay here forever. |
132:9
May your priests do always what is right; may your people shout for joy! |
132:10
You made a promise to your servant David; do not reject your chosen king,
LORD. |
132:11
You made a solemn promise to David--- a promise you will not take back:
"I will make one of your sons king, and he will rule after you. |
132:12
If your sons are true to my covenant and to the commands I give them, their
sons, also, will succeed you for all time as kings." |
132:13
The LORD has chosen Zion; he wants to make it his home: |
132:14
"This is where I will live forever; this is where I want to rule. |
132:15
I will richly provide Zion with all she needs; I will satisfy her poor with
food. |
132:16
I will bless her priests in all they do, and her people will sing and shout
for joy. |
132:17
Here I will make one of David's descendants a great king; here I will
preserve the rule of my chosen king. |
132:18
I will cover his enemies with shame, but his kingdom
will prosper and flourish." |
